I know I don't charge money for it, but what do I get in return lol? Your undying gratitude?

I generally do these favours for something in return other than money, that's how I landed my current job

lol, not much in that case.

The last person I did it for got me letter of recommendation from a senior engineer in a BHP Mitsubishi Alliance mine and a cover story haha, a bunch of good calls to my boss and so forth.

Before that another person turned down a job offer and passed it on to me in return, that's how I got my current OnG gig.

One of the first ones gave me insider info which I used for share trading

I only take money as a last resort, I'm more interested in contacts, opportunities, insider knowledge and so forth.

Extend by getting a TR, apply for a bridging B (Just give medical proof your mother is sick or something), fly back to Malaysia and take IELTS there because the lacist omputeh will never let you pass trust me. Then just put in a new application for PR, apply for medicare, kill off your TR and wait.

It ain't rocket science. Once you know the structure of how they mark the test and the stuff they look out for it's a piece of pie. Augment a few other simple tricks and it's easy to get past.

I'd personally offer my hand in marriage for money haha because I want a new LeCroy/Agilent scope but then MayAnne will hate me for life

I already have my housemate's wife cleaning up and cooking lol.

Try to extend your TR lah, then you can work from there. There's surely some loophole, somewhere. I can't think of one right now because I have this splitting headache from work

Not with BMA. Their fatigue management like shit, safety isn't close to Xstrata and Rio and they make you work like dog + keja bodoh like doing homework. But a recommendation letter from them is good enough. 6 figure salary in the industry is pretty standard man. Getting 6 figures and doing 7 hours with no fieldwork, now that'special

I just got dumped on a project to build a power plant multi stage water filtration unit with a team of 5 and a note saying "It's yours, don't f*** it up". Great opportunity or shine or f*** up. Great eh?
